WINTERFEST 2010
29 Jan - 1 Feb Glen Affric
Welcome to the Glen Affric WinterFest 2010, presented in partnership with 'Tiso Inverness Outdoor Experience' and 'Forestry Commission Scotland'. With the highest mountains north of the Great Glen, ancient Caledonian Forest, a National Nature Reserve and some of the most breathtaking winter scenery in the world, we will be proud to share the wilder places of the Scottish Highlands with you.Being landlocked and surrounded by high mountains on 3 sides, the unique location of Glen Affric offers superb winter walking for several months of the year.
The aim of the WinterFest is to get people out into the Scottish hills, enjoying the exhilarating experience of a winter hill-walking day. During the high level walks, you have the opportunity to learn or refresh those skills required when walking over snow and ice. If you want to progress from summer mountain walking or maybe you have always wanted to try using crampons and ice axes or simply just want to join a group for a great day out, then this is the Winter Festival for you. Our aspirations are high and from humble beginnings in 2009, we hope that the Glen Affric WinterFest will develop throughout the years.
